I Must Confess...

I have never been hooked on crack.  I've never used crack.  I've never seen crack.  I've never smelled crack.  I don't know any crackheads nor have I seen one (or at least I would never know how to identify one).  Simply put, crack is not in any part of many life.

So, how do I know wheter or not something is better than crack?  I don't.  That's the cut and dry, the straight and narrow, the quick and dirty of the situation.

What I DO know is that when people talk about highly addictive things, they compare them to the highly illegal drug.  Whether it be gambling, videogames, collecting things, or (in the case of this blog) food, it has been compared to all of them and more.  One could almost say that crack is the best thing in the world and that drawing comparisons to it is something to be valued.  Imagine what it means for something to be called better than such a thing.

So, there you have it.  That is why this blog exists.  It's not to tell you about the joys of crack (which I know nothing about), but to tell you about the joys of the foods I DO know about.  These foods may even help you quit crack if you eat them, because crack cost money and you likely only have so much money.  You be spending so much money to get more of these foods, there won't be any room for drugs in your budget.

Panda Express Beijing Beef

Image
There's nothing quite like a good beef entrée.  This is especially true of Chinese or pseudo-Chinese food.  Enter Panda Express' Beijing beef. Beijing Beef is a spicy concoction on the Panda Express.  Notice I said SPICY, not HOT.  It won't set your mouth on fire, which was kind of disappointing, considering my tendency to lean toward such foods.  The taste, however, was quite nice.  There are peppers and onion in there, which don't seem to do much for the flavor, but definitely give the dish a better aesthetic. The major player here is the beef.  It's deep-fried, which was a pleasant surprise.  It's crunchy, giving the dish a nice texture.  As mentioned before, the taste isn't bad.  It more than does it's job of carrying whatever side you pair it with. Finally, the portion size is pretty good for the price.  I got the bowl, which is what passes for "small", and felt like I was eating for an eternity, far from a bad th...

Russell Stover Hearts

So, you're looking for a Valentine's Day gift, but don't want to get the same old stuff.  Cards, flowers, and jewelry are the path of losers with no imagination.  If you really want your significant other to smile, slide them a Russell Stover Heart. These babies are made of a thick layer of chocolate covering whatever they feel like making it cover.  It could be caramel.  It could be cherry filling.  Heck, it could be even more chocolate.  You can even play a game with them.  Simply unwrap a bunch of them, put them in a box, and give it to your loved one.  They'll never know what's inside, but they'll always know it's good. Instead of getting that special someone a dozen rose or a card, give them a dozen of these.  They'll appreciate it more.  You may even get laid.  Chocolate is better than stuff you can't eat.  It's also better than crack.

City Barbecue Beef Brisket Sandwich

Image
There's a lot of things I haven't done a lot of things in life.  One of them is goes to a place called City Barbecue, a restaurant chain that's been around for a while.  Another of those things I've never done is eat a brisket sandwich.  So when a City Barbecue opened in my area, my curiosity was piqued.  And when I saw they had a brisket sandwich on the menu, my interest was piqued even more. The sandwich is a rather simple creation.  It's big pieces of beef brisket and a bun.  You get the option of whether or not you want sauce, which I passed on this trip so I could appreciate the taste of the meat.  And appreciate it I did. The brisket had a number of facets.  First, there's the texture was good.  Texture is something I tend to be finicky about and this sandwich got it right.  Also, it's so tender that it falls apart to the touch.  It really is a thing of beauty. Then there's the thick layer of fat that lines the t...
